Spitfires are a desert breed of dragon. Their dull brown bodies contrast with their brilliant turquoise markings, and they only blaze brighter when these dragons fight. Spitfires are notorious for their territorial natures, and the wing-edges of most are ripped and tattered before their first year is out. Spitfires are also noteworthy for their brilliant blue fire, which is used not for hunting or fighting, but rather for making glass caves from the sand, in which the dragons can soak up the sun.

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

Rose of Fiery Desert ('Rose' for short) was found struggling in a dangerously high heat wave one Summer. That day, she had a near-death experience as the high priestess, Light, revived her. She is thankful for what she receives, but as born an outsider is quick to judge and unafraid of a challenge. Despite her brush with fate as a hatchling, she still enjoys the warm rays of the sun and playing with the fire she breathes. Rose is admired for her beauty as a dragon, but feared for her strong will and nature.
